Buick made 2122 "KX" code dual quad 425, high compression, 360 hp 465 ft lb "Super Wildcat" Rivieras, about 800 Wildcats, and at least 1 Electra, a four door, in 1964 (the Wildcats had stick shifts, did the Rivs or Electras?)

  1. My Dad had a '64 Wildcat convertible with the 425. Don't recall if it was the 360HP dual quad version, but it was the fastest car I had ever driven, up to that point and for a long time after!
